I've had two surveys conducted by Surveying People, the first led to a decision not to proceed on a property, but gave me the confidence to rebook. The inclusive drone surveys offer an added extra to the package. The photos achieved give a thorough view of the state of the pitched and flat roof areas of the property. The surveys are detailed and carefully described. The nominally unlimited follow up calls are a huge value add. Ross clearly has a lot of knowledge and experience and articulates the reasons, concerns and possible solutions for the condition of the property. Areas for improvement would be the communication and administration. The first survey was delivered on time, but the second took several days longer. This was fair to a degree as it was nearly 50% longer, but it would have been helpful to set expectations and be informed.

I highly recommend Ross Richards, who recently carried out a Level 3 Homebuyer Survey for me, including complimentary drone footage of the flat roof. His inspection identified several significant defects — most notably progressive structural movement that wasn’t apparent during my viewing but became unmistakably clear in the photographs Ross captured a few weeks later. The drone imagery of the flat roof was particularly valuable, revealing that it required a full replacement and ultimately saving me from considerable future cost and disruption. The overall service was also extremely cost‑effective compared with other surveyors I approached, many of whom quoted nearly double for a similar scope. Both Shazmeena and Ross were excellent throughout, and I will be returning to them for my next property purchase.

Surveying People were very professional and easy to use. I was able to book a level 3 survey in quickly at a reasonable price. I provided the address and estate agent details and they handled everything. Ross who completed the survey and the follow up call was very helpful and knowledgeable. He talked me through the important level 3 issues in great detail and provided invaluable advice on how to proceed.

I recently used Surveying People for my Level 3 RICS survey as a first-time buyer, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received—especially from Ross. The survey was incredibly detailed and was delivered promptly, giving me plenty of time to review everything. The report was easy to understand and contained very helpful information that highlighted important issues with the property. What really stood out was the follow-up phone call with Ross after I received the report. He took the time to go through my questions in a friendly, down-to-earth way, explaining everything clearly without making me feel rushed. As a first-time buyer, that human approach gave me the confidence I needed to make an informed decision. I highly recommend Surveying People, and especially Ross, to anyone looking for a thorough, professional, and genuinely helpful surveyor.
